322: The brutal Shangguan Qianyue

Just then, a huge burst of energy erupted from Shen Xinrou's body, and Yang Lingchen was sent flying by the force.

"Ah…!"

Yang Lingchen let out a miserable cry, his body slamming heavily into the roof beam like a cannonball. The entire beam shook violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

At this moment, Shen Xinrou was at a critical stage of her Breakthrough.

Her eyes were tightly closed as she sat cross-legged, a powerful Aura radiating from her body.

Her beautiful face looked incomparably grave, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down her forehead.

Her hands formed seals, and she pushed her Divine Origin Power to the limit, surging like a violent wave, crazily rushing towards the Bottleneck of the sixth level of the Void God Realm.

Under her persistent impact time and time again, the seemingly indestructible Bottleneck finally showed a crack.

Shen Xinrou felt hope, and gathered all her strength to push through.

"Boom…!"

A loud noise echoed within Shen Xinrou's body, and her cultivation level finally achieved a Breakthrough to the sixth level of the Void God Realm.

A more powerful Aura radiated from her, causing the surrounding air to churn turbulently.

After a long while, Shen Xinrou opened her beautiful eyes, a brilliant light flashing within them like bright stars in the night sky.

"It truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier ancient Cultivation Technique."

Shen Xinyi's vermillion lips curled into a smile, as beautiful and enchanting as spring flowers. She immediately looked at Yang Lingchen and said, "Giggle…! Who would have thought that your Physique would be such a perfect match for this Cultivation Technique."

At this time, Yang Lingchen was getting up from the ground, looking depressed, rubbing his sore back while crossing his legs and drinking tea, looking quite comfortable.

"Hmph, now you know how good I am! If you dare to hit me again, don't blame me for going on strike." Yang Lingchen curled his lips, looking dissatisfied.

"Slap…!"

Shen Xinrou's face turned cold instantly, and she slapped Yang Lingchen directly, "Stinky brat, you can't tell who is the master and who is the servant now, right? Do you believe that This Young Lady will finish you off?"

"Ah…!"

Yang Lingchen screamed, and said speechlessly, "Damn, are you crazy! Just a moment ago you were hugging me and calling me your dear husband."

"Hmph, when This Young Lady needs you, you can be my husband. When This Young Lady doesn't need you, you must have the self-awareness of a servant, otherwise don't blame This Young Lady for being impolite."

A faint, imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Shen Xinrou's mouth, but there was a hint of strange emotion in her eyes.

At this moment, she realized that Yang Lingchen was not actually that annoying.

Moreover, both his talent and his looks were perfect in her mind, but her haughty nature prevented her from easily revealing her true thoughts.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Yang Lingchen's sound transmission talisman suddenly vibrated, and the voices of Shangguan Qianyue and Senior Sister Menger came from it: "Yang Lingchen, help! We are at Fairy Ridge in the Heavenly God Mountain Range."

Upon receiving the Sound Transmission, Yang Lingchen's expression sank instantly, and a flash of anxiety crossed his eyes. Without a word, he got up and walked out of Shen Xinrou's palace.

"Where are you going?" Shen Xinrou asked, looking at Yang Lingchen's hurried back.

"Saving people." Yang Lingchen replied briefly, his footsteps not stopping for a moment.

"Be careful."

To Yang Lingchen's surprise, Shen Xinrou did not stop him, but instead gave a word of caution.

"Mm… Mm!"

Yang Lingchen nodded, feeling a slight warmth in his heart, and then his figure flashed, turning into a stream of light as he quickly flew out of Yirou Peak.

...

Heavenly God Palace, Tianyin Peak.

Nangong Tianming was leisurely drinking tea in an elegant courtyard, a breeze blowing by, bringing with it the scent of flowers.

Just then, a young man wearing the robes of an Inner Sect Disciple hurried in. The young man looked nervous, his forehead covered in sweat.

"Senior Brother Nangong, Yang Lingchen has left Yirou Peak, and his cultivation level has already achieved a Breakthrough to the first level of the Heavenly God Realm." The Inner Sect Disciple said, his voice carrying a hint of urgency.

"Are you sure he is at the first level of the Heavenly God Realm, and not the fourth level?"

Nangong Tianming put down the teacup in his hand, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes as he stared fixedly at the Disciple in front of him.

"I am sure." The Inner Sect Disciple said affirmatively, "I saw it with my own eyes, there can be no mistake."

"Where did he go?" Nangong Tianming stood up, hands behind his back, a powerful Aura radiating from his body.

"I saw him heading towards the Heavenly God Mountain Range." The Inner Sect Disciple said, bowing his head, not daring to meet Nangong Tianming's gaze.

"Whoosh…!"

Nangong Tianming's figure instantly turned into a streak of white light and disappeared from Tianyin Peak.

At this moment, Nangong Tianming was extremely excited.

He had always suspected that the yuanling ginseng might still be in Yang Lingchen's hands.

Because if Yang Lingchen had used the yuanling ginseng, his cultivation level would have surely achieved a Breakthrough to the fourth level of the Heavenly God Realm.

But now that Yang Lingchen's cultivation level was still at the first level of the Heavenly God Realm, it made him even more convinced of his guess.

...

Heavenly God Mountain Range, Fairy Ridge.

Inside a mysterious cave.

Shangguan Qianyue and Senior Sister Menger had their cultivation levels sealed, and both of them had expressions of terror on their faces.

They stood back-to-back, looking vigilantly at Su Yuxuan in front of them.

"Su Yuxuan, you had better not mess around, otherwise Yang Lingchen will definitely not let you go if he finds out."

Shangguan Qianyue gathered her courage and said, her voice trembling, but her eyes filled with determination.

"bitch, it's come to this, and you're still thinking about that brat? What is it about me that is inferior to him?" Su Yuxuan roared, his face twisting instantly, his eyes full of jealousy and anger.

"You aren't as handsome as him."

Shangguan Qianyue said coldly, her gaze meeting Su Yuxuan's without fear.

"You… your strength isn't as strong as his."

Senior Sister Menger also spoke, her voice tinged with anger.

"Two bitches, it was a waste of time for This Young Master to chase you for so long. Since you are so unappreciative, don't blame This Young Master for being ruthless."

A cold, evil smile appeared on Su Yuxuan's face, a smile that made one shudder.

He then slowly took off his clothes and approached Shangguan Qianyue and Senior Sister Menger step by step.

"Yue'er, what should we do? Why hasn't Junior Brother Lingchen arrived yet?" Senior Sister Menger whispered, her voice filled with fear and helplessness.

"Don't worry, he must be almost here." Shangguan Qianyue said, forcing herself to stay calm, though she actually had no bottom in her heart.

"Hehehe, stop dreaming, that brat couldn't possibly find this place." Su Yuxuan laughed wickedly, then lunged at Senior Sister Menger.

"Su Yuxuan, you are courting death."

Just then, Yang Lingchen's cold, sharp shout came from outside the cave, and then a figure rushed into the cave instantly.

Yang Lingchen appeared like a Heavenly God descending, a powerful Aura radiating from his body.

"Yang Lingchen!" Hearing Yang Lingchen's voice, Su Yuxuan's body couldn't help but tremble, and he turned his head.

Before Su Yuxuan could react,

"Swish… Swish… Swish… Swish…!"

Several cold, piercing Sword Qi instantly severed Su Yuxuan's limbs.

"Ah… Ah… Ah…!"

A shrill, miserable scream echoed throughout the entire cave, the sound like a demon from Hell, making one's hair stand on end.

"Yang Lingchen, you've finally come."

Seeing Yang Lingchen arrive, Shangguan Qianyue and Senior Sister Menger finally breathed a sigh of relief and both excitedly threw themselves into Yang Lingchen's arms.

"It's okay now."

Yang Lingchen gently patted the two girls' backs and said gently. His eyes were filled with concern and comfort.

After a moment, Shangguan Qianyue and Senior Sister Menger's complexions finally returned to normal.

There was no more fear in their eyes, replaced by gratitude and reliance on Yang Lingchen.

Subsequently, Yang Lingchen removed the Restriction on the two girls.

"Bastard, This Young Lady is going to tear you into pieces today."

After regaining her freedom, Shangguan Qianyue grabbed her battle sword and rushed towards Su Yuxuan.

"Don't, don't kill me, my big brother is a Core Disciple, if you kill me, you won't be able to escape either."

A look of terror appeared on Su Yuxuan's face, his limbs dripping with blood; at this moment, he no longer had his previous arrogance.

Although his limbs were broken, if one could live, who would want to die?

"Swish… Swish… Swish…!"

Shangguan Qianyue's eyes were cold, and she slashed at Su Yuxuan with one sword after another, each strike carrying her anger and hatred.

"Ah… Ah… Shangguan Qianyue, you bitch, you will meet a bad end." Su Yuxuan wailed in pain.

"Swish!"

"Hmph!"

Shangguan Qianyue snorted coldly and used her sword to sever Su Yuxuan's critical area.

"With just this little bit, you still want to take advantage of us? Who gave you the courage?" A look of disdain appeared in Shangguan Qianyue's eyes.

"Ah… Ah… Ah…!" Su Yuxuan wailed repeatedly, and soon passed out from the pain.

Seeing this, Yang Lingchen couldn't help but cross his legs tightly, thinking to himself: "This girl is really ruthless!"

"Swish…!"

Shangguan Qianyue used her sword to decapitate Su Yuxuan. "Don't think that just because you passed out, This Young Lady won't kill you."

Seeing that it was about done, Yang Lingchen asked: "Senior Sister Menger, Miss Qianyue, how did you two end up here?"

"Qianyue and I came here to complete a mission, who knew that we would be followed by Su Yuxuan." Senior Sister Menger said, her voice still carrying a lingering fear.

"So that's how it is." Yang Lingchen said: "Sister Menger, Miss Qianyue, let's go back!"

"Yang Lingchen, why do you call Menger 'Sister', but call me 'Miss Qianyue'?" Shangguan Qianyue pouted, a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.

"Then what should I call you?" Yang Lingchen laughed.

Shangguan Qianyue's beautiful eyes flashed, and she said: "You can call me Sister Qianyue!"

"You are already over fifty, and you want a twenty-something young man like me to call you 'little sister'? Do you think that's appropriate?" Yang Lingchen laughed out loud.

"Bastard, do you have any common sense?" Shangguan Qianyue scolded: "We are Cultivators, not Mortals. As a practitioner of the Phantom God Realm, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe my age as that of an infant!"

"Fine, fine, Sister Qianyue, let's hurry back."

Yang Lingchen smiled helplessly, then waved his hand to dispose of Su Yuxuan's corpse.

Just then, he sensed a powerful Aura rapidly approaching from this direction.

Yang Lingchen's expression tightened, he shielded Shangguan Qianyue and Senior Sister Menger behind him, and looked vigilantly in the direction the Aura was coming from.
